One of the moving forces of early American silent comedy, F. Richard
Jones made dozens of hilarious two-reel comedies for
Mack Sennett in the
mid-teens and early 1920s, featuring such stars as
Louise Fazenda,
Slim Summerville,
Edgar Kennedy and
Ben Turpin. He then graduated to feature films, first with
Sennett and then with other producers and studios. Not just a comedy
director, Jones proved he could adeptly handle romance stories and
adventure epics with equal ease. His last film, the action/mystery
picture
Bulldog Drummond (1929), was also his only sound film, but it stands as a
superior example of the genre.
